The famous Tetrahedron Conjecture of Tur\'an from the 1940s asserts that the number of edges in an $n$-vertex $3$-graph without the tetrahedron, the complete $3$-graph on four vertices, cannot exceed that of the balanced complete cyclic…

A simple graph is called triangular if every edge of it belongs to a triangle. We conjecture that any graphical degree sequence all terms of which are greater than or equal to 4 has a triangular realisation, and establish this conjecture…

The Petersen colouring conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph admits an edge-colouring with $5$ colours such that for every edge $e$, the set of colours assigned to the edges adjacent to $e$ has cardinality either $2$ or $4$,…

An \emph{antimagic labeling} of a finite undirected simple graph with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices is a bijection from the set of edges to the integers $1,...,m$ such that all $n$ vertex sums are pairwise distinct, where a vertex sum is the…

A well-known conjecture by Lov\'asz and Plummer from the 1970s asserted that a bridgeless cubic graph has exponentially many perfect matchings. It was solved in the affirmative by Esperet et al. (Adv. Math. 2011). On the other hand,…

In this paper, we prove that every 3-chromatic connected graph, except $C_7$, admits a 3-vertex coloring in which every vertex is the beginning of a 3-chromatic path. It is a special case of a conjecture due to S.~Akbari, F.~Khaghanpoor,…

A simple graph is triangular if every edge is contained in a triangle. A sequence of integers is graphical if it is the degree sequence of a simple graph. Egan and Nikolayevsky recently conjectured that every graphical sequence whose terms…

A graph H is called common if the total number of copies of H in every graph and its complement asymptotically minimizes for random graphs. A former conjecture of Burr and Rosta, extending a conjecture of Erdos asserted that every graph is…

In this paper, we are motivated by two conjectures proposed by C. Bender et al.\ in 2024, which have remained open questions. The first conjecture states that if the complemented zero-divisor graph \( G(S) \) of a commutative semigroup \( S…

Lovasz and Plummer conjectured that there exists a fixed positive constant c such that every cubic n-vertex graph with no cutedge has at least 2^(cn) perfect matchings. Their conjecture has been verified for bipartite graphs by Voorhoeve…

Listed as No. 53 among the one hundred famous unsolved problems in [J. A. Bondy, U. S. R. Murty, Graph Theory, Springer, Berlin, 2008] is Steinberg's conjecture, which states that every planar graph without 4- and 5-cycles is 3-colorable.…

An acyclic edge coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper edge coloring such that no bichromatic cycles are produced. The acyclic edge coloring conjecture by Fiam{\v{c}}ik (1978) and Alon, Sudakov and Zaks (2001) states that every simple graph…

Ahanjideh, Akbari, Fakharan and Trevisan proposed a conjecture in [Linear Algebra Appl. 632 (2022) 1--14] on the distribution of the Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs: for any connected graph of order $n$ with diameter $d\ge 2$ that is not a…

In $1990$, Hartsfield and Ringel introduced antimagic graphs. Hartsfield and Ringel conjectured that every connected graph (and in particular, a tree) except $K_2$ is antimagic. In $2010$, Hefetz et al.\ raised two questions: Is every…

We provide a short proof that a 5-connected nonplanar apex graph contains a subdivided $K_{_5}$ or a $K^-_{_4}$ (= $K_{_4}$ with a single edge removed) as a subgraph. Together with a recent result of Ma and Yu that {\sl every nonplanar…

For a graph on $m$ edges, a bijective function between the edge set of the graph and $\{1,2,\ldots,m\}$ is an antimagic labeling provided that when adding the labels of the edges incident to the same vertex, the sums are pairwise distinct.…

Let $G$ be a graph. A total dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex in $G$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. Recently, the following question was proposed: "Is it true that every connected cubic…
